Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2018] - Discussion and TOC Talk

[Mammo]

I remember a oneshot in Jump. Dunno from what year or what title, but it looked like Hero Academia or something drawn by Horikoshi. Guys who got powers from animals, MC got a weak chameleon which turned into a dragon, his best friend was one of 3 most talented guys from that school.

Animored by the other Amano

About Ziga

Spoiler

on one end I feel like the MC being Ziga could be an interesting route. The psychological effects that it has on Ko knowing that he is the reason why his mother died. He’s the one that killed his GF. And he can’t control this beast within him. But on the other hand, I think this is an idea best suited for a short series. Assuming the series is planned on going on long, this would probably lead to It being sorta an Attack on Titan 2.0. Which could be cool. But I liked the idea of humans fighting giant monsters better

Ziga's plot twist screams "I was axed so hard that my whole story will fit in 1 volume. Please check out and wait for my next manga. Bye."

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

About Ziga I still think

Spoiler

the one who controlls Ziga is the mysterious hat girl

 

[Halloween]

On the topic of what I'd like to see in Jump, I wouldn't mind a space adventure of some kind. Or possibly even a mecha series.

 

[Belkac3m]

I was reading the first chapter of ZIGA and thinking how it seem unnatural when the authors are giving us information using internal monologues.

The first chapter of GIZA is good, at least he managed to get me to read until the last page.

ZIGA 1st chapter >>> Noah's note 1st chapter (it's not even readable)

Spoiler:

But how did that guy find the MC at the beginning?

--- Double Post Merged, Apr 14, 2018 ---

But I don't like that character development in just 2 chapters.

I hope so. I haven't been so off-put by a series since that time I read Talentless Nana. That was the last time I tried reading a series solely because of the cover without looking anything up about it lol. Seeing some of these new series makes me miss Spring Weapon lol.

ST&RS was the best space manga of the magazine.

Its sad it was too revolutionary for JUMPs audience.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

That thought that the only space manga of Jump which was succesful was Cobra in 1978

 

[SharkBait]

Remember when fans said Toriko was going to have a space arc

 

[savethecat]

Give us what we want Mr.Editor-In-Chief. Zippo serialization. New Kishimoto series. A Build King full series. Ping Pong furries. And let Moue simultaneously serialize Galaxy Gangs and a Olé Golazo sequel where Bamba the Man is a pro.

 

[shoyoboyo]

I would have rather seen Banba grow as a soccer player, not immediately be a pro.

I thought I might like it when RxL tried it, but honestly I prefer to see them grow.

 

[De La Croissant]

I want a western series. Gun Blaze West was a flop. Kouya no Shounen Isamu was the only successful title.

 

[Tamil]

Steel Ball Run was there but it went to Ultra Jump after 20 or so chapters.

I don't think a western series will do all that well. SBR never sold all that well even with its top notch quality.

 

[De La Croissant]

Sad. Several western films are aesthetically based on samurai movies. Jump could mix both worlds and create something interesting.

 

[TyVip]

Give me another mafia series that is not reborn.

I want to be a mafia king/godfather.

 

[Belkac3m]

Araki did a western one shot during his debut : busou poker

A mafia serie could be interesting, something like sun ken rock lol but in shonen style
